IPv6 Testing Methodology
A methodology to measure the performance, security and stability of networks handling dual stack IPv4/IPv6 traffic
With IPv4 exhaustion nearing, making the move to IPv6 has become a top priority. Networks are already handling traffic from both IPv4 and IPv6, making it critical that today's organizations can measure the resiliency of their networks under this dual stack reality. Many organizations are finding that conventional network testing methods, including legacy bit blasting tools, artificial traffic, and an outdated IPv6 stack, have led to production network problems and missed vulnerabilities. To capture precise, standardized and repeatable measurements of network resiliency, these organizations require an evaluation that can mirror the actual deployment environment.
IPv6 Testing Methodology
With this in mind, BreakingPoint published an IPv6 testing methodology that provides a practitioner's guide to validating the performance, security and stability of today’s dual stack network infrastructure. Used in tandem with the BreakingPoint Storm CTM™, the BreakingPoint IPv6 methodology allows organizations to thoroughly validate dual stack IPv4/IPv6 capabilities using the most current and realistic network conditions possible. BreakingPoint has replaced this conventional network testing with a methodology and solution that includes a realistic mix of application traffic at line rate speeds, peak user load, and real-time attack traffic.
